Outstanding Experience

My mother in Law resides at Inspired Living at Lakewood Ranch. We recently weathered hurricane Irma with Mom. The staff has always been dedicated but they outdid themselves. The organization was superior and the building was secure. [Removed], the on sight leader, marshaled her troops and everyone went calmly about the business of making sure all guests were cared for. Every staff member went above and beyond their own specific jobs because they love the residents. It was truly evident. I would like to personally thank: [Removed] and so many more. This was a well oiled machine of wonderful people.

This new facility is very nice. The apt do not have a full size kitchen. We liked this facility. This is similar to Tuscan Gardens which is closer to our target area. The sales person was very nice.

Beautiful new facility, but the care does not seem to be what we were promised. Little to no follow through with the majority of the care staff and nobody really seems to know what is going on with their residents. It is difficult and emotional enough to transition your loved one into assisted living, without the added stress of feeling that he/she is being neglected. This facility has all the bells and whistles, but I feel that the "sales team" did not give us realistic expectations for care. They have these great little bracelets that the residents wear with a door key and a call button. Unfortunately it takes the upwards of 25 minutes for anyone to respond to the call, which I find to be completely unacceptable.

Great for all ages

Inspired Living is perfect if you're looking for Assisted Living that looks and feels like an upscale hotel. Great location and the staff is excellent. We choose them for the above reasons and they have a nice staffed fitness center. I gave it 4 stars since it's a little pricey and so far we haven't used the activities, hopefully that will change.

So Grateful that we found Inspired Living at Lakewood Ranch

This week, we moved our mom into Inspired Living at Lakewood Ranch. She is soon to be 91, is legally blind and hard of hearing, so you can imagine our concern about moving her. Yet, the experience for mom and our family has been far, far better than we could have ever imagined. From the moment I walked into the facility months ago to attend a caregiver education program, through the research of other local facilities, signing of the lease, and the move itself, I have been impressed with the professionalism of the staff and the warmth of everyone we have met. When we finally got mom into her newly designed room, she was HOME! Staff members continually stopped by to introduce themselves, there was assistance at ready to acclimate her to the facility, and they made sure she had someone to sit with at meals so that she did not feel quite so alone. I have to praise Nadine and her wellness and caregiving staff, Hope and the sales team, and the concierge, the meal staff, the chef, the General Manager; all have been as welcoming, warm, and polished as one could possible hope. What a relief to find such a safe, welcoming home for mom. Our family is grateful that mom is now somewhere where she is able to receive the assistance she needs to live as full a life as possible, for as long as she lives. So glad that we found Inspired Living at Lakewood Ranch!

A great place for my mom!

The staff at Inspired Living LWR is phenomenal! They are very caring and genuinely interested in providing for the specialized needs of each resident. They make family members feel welcome and plan activities to make us feel involved. The brand new facility is lovely and spacious and cleaned and maintained very well. It has state-of-the art technology that allows staff to know immediately if a resident needs assistance. They also have a beautiful, heated pool with a lift chair that not many facilities provide.

Doing Extremely Well

I think that they have done extremely well, but I think that because it is a new place that they have some kinks to work out, but they are minor ones. Sometimes the food is very good, sometimes it's not quite as good. I'd say they are doing well though.

Thank you for your recent review of our Inspired Living at Lakewood Ranch community. We agree, as you expressed, that with any new community, there are always those “kinks” that need to be worked out. We are working diligently on any areas that need development since our opening in September. We value the feedback on your dining experience and we will review with our Dining Services director on how our menu quality can be enhanced. We hope you enjoyed the community and look forward to any further feedback you can provide. Have an Inspired Day. Christina Driscoll, Executive Director Inspired Living at Lakewood Ranch
